Of large American cities, Boston, New York, Philadelphia, Washington, and San Francisco (in roughly that order).

Philadelphia!!!!

Let's also not forget that the city also had and has the first prison in the country that being Eastern State Penitentiary.

In terms of Untied States historic importance there is no greater city than Philadelphia.

Boston of course, but every city pretty much on that list has some sort of historic value
